Weatherbee would then convince the victim to allow her to deposit a cheque in the victim’s bank account for more than the amount owed and then withdraw the excess cash.
Those cheques were later found to be counterfeit.
Most of the victims were approached in their homes in the area of Avenue B North.
Weatherbee is 5’3”, around 140 pounds, with brown hair and eyes.
Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to call police at 306-975-8300 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
